Sticking with a topic, I borrowed Genetics For Dummies from the library (sorry, it's not in the Booknook) just for fun. Wow, what a great book! It covers everything without going too far over your head, and it lets you skip things you would rather not have to delve into without shaming you or guilting you into it. Very little math is used, and when it is, it's simple multiplication or addition and you are told when to use which operation. And it has a Northwest connection! The author, Dr. Tara Rodden Robinson is a professor at OSU! If you want to know more you can read my review on Amazon. In the library, 4th floor, call number 576.5.
Save that date! This year the holiday book sale is a week before Thanksgiving. Buy a handful of books -- perfect as a stuffing in your cornucopias or as a holiday centerpiece. Plus, books are such a great stocking stuffer -- so much better than coal!
